"Stolen Children"
|
This series of novels follows the emergence of a new human ability - the power to heal, to communicate, even to travel, through the facility of the mind.
The first book, "The Healer", introduces the readers to Manoel, a psychic healer descended from an Amazonian tribe. By the end of the novel, Manoel’s ward, the deaf-blind Joăo and Joăo’s young niece, Ana, both with psychic powers of their own, are fleeing for their lives from the evil cult leader, Caldos Moreira.
In "Darkness of the God" Ana allies with a group of Gypsies as the pursuit continues across the Mexican desert. True to the title, darkness descends when Caldos is successful in kidnapping Joăo, Ana and Ana’s Gypsy friend, Keja. Spectacular battles ensue between the young psychic girl and Caldos, a powerful man who has never before met such opposition.
"Stolen Children" continues the tale of Ana. Although under the thumb of Caldos, Ana continues in her loving goal to heal all who need healing. At her touch babies become part of a psychic tribe whose loyalty is only to each other, who are disdainful of individuals without their powers. These infants crawl away from their natural families, braving any danger, just to be with their own kind.
The novel culminates with desperate struggles across America and Afghanistan, with a breathtaking climax in the windy city of Lethbridge, Alberta.
